New Drawing Type for Assembly ADP Drawings

There is a new drawing type in 12.1, "Assembly ADP drawing" dedicated for drawings created by the Assembly Automatic Document Production application. You can see that there is a new drawing type in the open/save drawing dialogues:

If you want to handle the new drawing type in your project you need to assign two new logical names in your marine project setup file (D065<proj>.sdb):

SB_ASSADP_PDB SB_ASSADP_PDB

SB_ASSADP_PDB_PADD <name_of_dept>;<name_of_regi>

This is for the system to recognize the type.

This defines the name of the DEPT and then REGI where you want Marine Drafting to find your Assembly ADP drawings.

Benefits

To make a distinction between general assembly drawings and drawings generated by Assembly ADP.

Compatibility Constraints

Assembly Drawings created in earlier versions will still have the old drawing type (Assembly Drawing) and will thus not be listed as an Assembly ADP Drawing but as an Assembly Drawing.
